Do you refer to the capture itself? Or the red box?

Signup captcha (in Polish), for comparison

I refer to the stuff above the red box. It's not styled consistenyl wirh the rest of the form. I attached similar captcha on the signup form for comparison.

The signup captcha is being reformatted by a script in mediawiki.special.createAccount.js; we should probably run it for login too.
(Also, that's an awful solution. :( )

Change 98357 had a related patch set uploaded by Jcf2000:
Reformat signin captcha in case of incorrect login

I'm assuming this bug is meant for Extension:ConfirmEdit, since that's where CAPTCHA support is.

Actually the code to format CAPTCHA to look pretty in the new login/signup form is currently in core (which sucks, feel free to fix that).

Ha! Never knew that. Interesting.
